The horror-comedy follows 17-year-old Kate's adventures at SpaceCON, the local sci-fi/fantasy convention. There, Kate meets Paul, a recently-turned vampire, who's taking advantage of the convention's costume atmosphere by actually dressing as one. When Kate and her friends discover Paul isn't the only vampire at the convention, it's up to them kick some serious vampire butt!

Hagins told Seventeen that people have been dying over the movie so far. "I really wanted to be respectful of vampire fans and geek culture, and so far those audiences have been excited about the film. I hope people have fun with the comedy and feel like the portrayal of the teen experience is relatable."

Hagins, who made her first feature film at 12 (yes, you read that right), said she wanted to keep the teen experience very real in the movie, starting with casting actors who are actually 18 to play high school students, and not the 20-somethings like in most movies. "I was kind of shy and dorky in high school, so the experiences were drawn on my own," Hagins said.

Making "My Sucky Teen Romance" took almost two years — Hagins was responsible for everything from writing the script, to scouting locations, to casting actors. It was filmed in her hometown of Austin, Texas.

The movie premiered at South By Southwest in March — Hagins even had to take two weeks off from her senior year to attend her own premiere! (Don't worry though, she said her teachers were all super understanding.)

What's next for the amazing teen? Hagins has a few projects in the works, the first of which is a Halloween coming-of-age film that will shoot in the fall.

"My Sucky Teen Romance" is available on DVD, Blu-Ray, On Demand, and iTunes via Dark Sky Films. Check out a clip below!
